Hello there!
Having the dreaded task of grading some assignments in C, does
ANYONE have a program that, given all the students' programs (in an
archive or directory), will do some checking on the similarity and
suggest *possible* cheating? On our Honeywell 68/80 Multics we
have a "Collusion Detector" for PL/1 programs. Something like that
would (say) count number of variables, operators, procedures,
parameters, etc, and by applying some kind of heuristics would
give a number suggesting (or not) cheating.
If any kind soul has something like it (could be in "awk" (most probably),
in "yacc/lex", or straight C code or anything else), please
mail a copy... Your offer will be appreciated
